Abandoned, lies a gilded frame Its forged glass guardian now shattered The photo ripped out from its core Family larceny unreported Fraught vestiges of uproar Child's reflections resonate in bath bubbles The drive way desecrated An aimless teddy and a wheelless toy car A photo a souvenir of their time together Entranced in a grounded life boat An anchor now lies detached Ghostly outlines prone on the sandy shore The front door firmly ajar Windows flap in the hostile wind Chimneys spouting fungal spores A back door overlooks an overgrown jungle Disputes never resolved Children like puppets on a tight rope Collateral damage piled high A broken family powerless in lifes high seas

Where once a photograph beamed their love, now stands a blank wall
Abandoned, lies a gilded frame Its forged glass guardian now shattered The photo ripped out from its core Family larceny unreported Fraught vestiges of uproar Child's reflections resonate in bath bubbles The drive way desecrated An aimless teddy and a wheelless toy car A photo a souvenir of their time together Entranced in a grounded life boat An anchor now lies detached Ghostly outlines prone on the sandy shore The front door firmly ajar Windows flap in the hostile wind Chimneys spouting fungal spores A back door overlooks an overgrown jungle Disputes never resolved Children like puppets on a tight rope Collateral damage piled high A broken family powerless in lifes high seas
Relationships are too fast, society passes family by. Everyone in this situation needs to read the signs and act in partnership before the picture frame becomes empty.
